* Any ''[[Miracleman|Marvel/Miracleman]]'' comic, due to notorious legal wrangling over the rights to the characters and stories. The rights were acquired by Marvel in 2009, but only for the original 1950s/1960s ''Marvelman'' stories, the scripts from the [[Alan Moore]] and [[Neil Gaiman]] stories, and the rights to use the characters in new stories. While this means that the Gaiman stories can be reprinted, Neil's run completed, and new ''Marvelman'' stories published, the Moore stories are still off-limits due to Marvel having to renegotiate with the artists, among which includes [[Rick Veitch]], who has been singled-out as being a potential hold-out due to his disdain for Marvel.
* Due to Disney's infamous lawsuit, ''Air Pirates Funnies'', a 1970s underground comix series unauthorized by Disney which depicted Disney characters in sexually-explicit situations, is completely out of print. Original copies are valuable, although the series has made appearances on the internet.
Line 45:
* None of the volumes of ''[[Albedo: Erma Felna EDF]]'', the original [[Furry Comic]], were ever re-issued. Unlike its sequel, ''Birthright'', which is currently slowly being put out as a [[Web Comic]].

* While ''[[U.S. Acres]]'' will hardly get reprinted, the strips [https://web.archive.org/web/20131010180927/http://www.garfield.com/usacres/todayscomic.html are available, in color, on the official Garfield website] - though they're releasing one per day, and only started in August 2010.
* [[Dick Tracy]] has few reprints available and in the case of the Max Collins era strips (which were critically acclaimed) few have ever been reprinted, save the various sequences collected in the Anniversary editions. Fantagraphics is releasing ''The Complete Chester Gould Dick Tracy'' archive editions however, and ''The Collins Case Files'' are currently on its third volume.
